My name is ROMAN VLAHOVIC. I am a practicing architect, researcher, designer, scientist, artist and also nothing from the stated… I live and work in Zagreb and Zürich. I am an avatar, a project, a brand, a materialized discussion between Luka Vlahovic, Miro Roman and many others, who I get in contact with. I am interested in rethinking design ”from a city to a ring’’, from an abstract informational object to its physical manifestation.
MIRO ROMAN is a researcher, architect and a designer from Zagreb. Miro holds a Master of Advanced Studies degree in Computer Aided Architectural Design from ETH Zürich, and a Master in Architecture degree from the University of Zagreb.
